Is this the future of solo filmmaking? Let me know below 👇🎥👌
It's so perfect for solo filming
How can I buy
Hey@@leoxlife I've link it in the video description 👍
It has a memory card inside or you need your Phone to get the footage? And do you think it works with no internet? I am often in remote locations! I think I absolutly need one!!! I ride horses solo! So I need something really safe for not hurting them!!
Seems like
Hi from Zero Zero! What a fun creative way to introduce the HOVERAir X1 - we love seeing how people unleash their creativity. Next time you can try "Smart Control" too where you can launch different flight modes using gestures, and returning to follow (back or dolly track) in between! Cheers, Sarah from HOVERAir
Thank you for sending this to him to test. I've never seen such a drone before and this little thing is completely next level and far cheaper than the drone I was planning to buy.
Want
Can this amazing little machine be set to follow my dog instead of following me?
Please add manual controls over water 🙏🙏
HeroHero, I truly love your product. For the next drone version, would you increase the time flying? Also, I think Micro SD slot is the best and don't mind about the size being bigger.
I’ve been using the X1 for the past year and it’s great to get the look of a second cameraman with you and it’s still working great. Such a powerful little tool
@@NubisKubis-gc9if In manual mode using the phone app yes
@@NubisKubis-gc9if I don’t know, I have an iPhone, click his link and see if it does
But it's too costly ! 470$
I don’t how to describe how AMAZING your videos are like SERIOUSLY dude. for such a pettit device it seems pretty much the real deal
My Hover AIr X1 is my new buddy (Herbie) when I take photos/videos. They are great shots for me, enough to present my weird tales to my family. I learn something new every day. My stuff is purely for the grandkids but little Herbie Hover's quality does amaze me.
Geez, what a professional production. I have been playing with filming and editing for two years, and can tell you it is not easy, at all, to make videos this well. A+
Love the fact that you talked to it! Great video showing the possibilities of using this drone and you’re one of the few reviewers I’ve seen who talk about its manual mode for more creative footage.
I've seen the Hoverair X1 drone demonstrated on many TH-cam channels, and based on that, I thought it was a indifferent gadget. After seeing, what pretty amazing results, you were capable of getting out of it, and how well it performed in your rather extreme test, I must say, I'm now very impressed. Great tests, great video 😎
I was glad to see you tie all the different modes into together and make a cinematic ending. Some people really need to see things tied together to full understand the level of value one gets out of this device. I just got mine this morning, and of course, the first thing I'm doing is "learning" and "gathering creative inspiration" from all the podcast producers out there like yourself. Thank you for showing off the HOVERAir X1, it is truly a great device!
I’m pretty much amazed. Beautiful work, technology and creativity working together.
I think they gave that drone to the right guy to try it out! Nice sequence.
Gives me some ideas to try out with that thing.
This is amazing, I was just thinking of something like this recently and I see now it’s possible.
Yeah, I’ve had one some several months now. It was pricy at first, but the more I used it, and found how easy and manageable its small frame, and easy to use made it a variable tool I;d never figured I’d have. Great post Mate!😊
I'm impressed. Great video as usual - thanks. And that little drone is something I could go for with it's ease of use a real standout. I couldn't tell it was a self-flying camera. 👏👏👏
My wife got me this for Christmas and it has made an enormous difference to my channel. I don't use it all the time but when I need another camera operator this does the triack.
As an Action Filmmaker and Stunt and Fight Choreographer, this is the FUTURE!!!! Great Video well done
The best review video I've ever seen!!❤
I just purchased the HoverX1 and thank you for all the useful tips. I will be using them in my next outing.
The best video about the Hoverair X1 so far! We got our X1 a few days ago and we will use ist on our trip to south tyrol.
Wow what a cool bit of kit and not as expensive as I would have expected. I definitely need to get one thanks Steve.
Love that I'm not the only one who talks to her HOVERAir X1! 😄
As someone who is not good at flying drones this could be the answer I have been looking for 😮
love the simplicity and ease of use as it is RN. But if and when they add the ability to also manually fly it with any kind of decent joystick controller as well, and this thing will become the swiss army knife of pocket drones.
That's a great video Steve. Most people looking for air /follow up shots on their vacations don't need more than the simple modes this mini drone offers. This is a completely new drone segment. So yes, please do a follow up video. How much noise does this little fellow produce, from how far can you hear it?
I hope DJI will notice this missing product in their line-up and make one by themself - but with DJI 4k 10bit video quality. We're living in a great time now with all these new innovations for private video creation.
No 1fan of steve (online video learning) i got 2k subs after implementing your filmmaking tips.
Thanks Steve
This is amazing to hear! Well done on 2k subs and thanks for watching.
This little drone is pretty amazing sure open a world of possibility for film maker specially when solo. Nice work
All i can say is a big WOW❤❤
Of all the reviews and demos of this product I've seen, yours IS THE BEST. Thank for your this.
Wow, thank you!
I bought one myself and can;t stop using it. I have an older Magic Pro but I haven;t used it in months. I'll use this one a lot. Thanks for a great video.
Thank you for sharing! Looks incredible
Very impressive! So impressive in fact that you've inspired me too try doing different shots and sequences with my Hover Air X1! Thank you for an excellent video!
❤ you now got a filmman on your team thank You for a nice and professional Review 👍
It's just what I need, it's difficult to make videos on your own and even more so when they're my style.
Epic - Got mine a few weeks ago and I love it.
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you for showing us this brilliant drone. Great filming too.
Great video, just got my HoverAir X1. I've been flying drones for 8yrs now and this is the easiest drone ever.. Time to create videos!!
Amazing, didn't know that this drone exists! Gonna buy it 💪😎✌️😊
Wow! Amazing result! This little drone would be helpful for solo creator for sure!👍
As usual very impressive tutorial..bravo👏
I use the Hover for my YT channel, it's great for B roll but I also use it for the intros too as the audio sync feature on the drone/app is spectacular and I think pretty much unique! Thanks for the great video!
Wow! What a beautiful landscape you have found there! Enchanting! - Thank you for this very informative and entertaining review and tips! Much appreciated! 🙂
Awesome video!!! Just what I’ve been looking for! A mixture of shots is key!
Wow! This is amazing!
Wow this is amazing!! I need one!! And the fact you can fly it manually too, perfect! Brilliant video as ever, thanks Steve! 😃✨
Love the new music cues for each section! Got me grooving! Sounds like "The Bad Touch" by The Bloodhound Gang. Awesome!
Thanks! You're the first to notice 🙂
this is absolutely useful for outdoor enthusiastic people. such an excellent technology. it's a pocket rocket.
'Pocket Rocket' I love it :-)
Awesome sequence lovely matching dramtic music bed.
💥💥💥Amazing💥💥
It’s a great product, extremely versatile and suitable for all user-levels.
I treated myself to this drone, I find it works really well. So easy to use and durable. Great video, you really got the best out of it.
This was easily the most fun i've had making a TH-cam video which I think says a lot about the product. I'm really impressed with how easy it is to use and the way it can crash into things and still be ok 🙂
@@LearnOnlineVideohie Steve that's so amazing I'm Prowess I have been your student since 2022 . I wonder if u could tell me the price of this drone I like it
Hi, you create the best footage I've seen of the drone.... I'm thrilled with what can be done with this little thing.... Mine will arrive tomorrow and thanks to you I was able to see what's possible. .. thank you Marcus
I really like your video bro. You did amazing review and the shots are awesome. Much love from Malawi 🇲🇼, Africa
This is the best review of this little drone that I have seen. Does it have any type of obstacle avoidance, or is it just the way you use and set it? It seems to do rather well between obstacles. Your editing is awesome as always.
Hey @Rob_Francis Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed this video. The HOVERAir X1 does not have obstacle avoidance but It can detect obstacles in its path, when it does it will simply stop moving or land. Even if it does crash though there is no damage (at least in my experience). I must have crashed it at least 20 times, usually when I crash a drone its gets expensive, either a properly breaks or I scratch a lens but this thing is much tougher.
@LearnOnlineVideo Thank you for your response. Just good to know. At least it's tough which makes up for it. Really enjoy your videos. Very informative info.
Great video. I love all your videos. I’m here to learn more about photography and videography. Watching you work is awesome.
Honestly I had the idea of this drone around 2 years ago. But idea is not enough to turn it into reality. I call it companion drone on my term. It’s good to watch it into reality.
Incredible! Though I will continue to enjoy hiking in pure peace, away from tech and the need to record it.
Did you end up getting it? I also would want to use one for hiking.
Wow! I think that little drone is amazing. As always love your videos, your a master at work. 📹
Excellent tech. Love mine. Got a clip on lavalier Mike. Thanks for your review.
Love the concept, if it was £130-£160 then I’d buy it , really impressed with the review matey ..
Thanks. Ive had a few comments saying they think it is overpriced but hopefully it will get cheaper with the release of the new version at the end of the year. Glad you enjoyed the video :-)
Thank you for this amazing video. It shows me the possibilitys to use this little drone. And you give me some ideas to create my next videos.
Great edit and amazing piece of kit. Best wishes Graham 🇬🇧
Great review. Great video. Really enjoyed it all. Device looks nice too.
incredible product
This is amazing!! I’m totally saving up for one of these suckers. Great video, as always. Love your hints and tips, and suggestions of what gear to use. This is a really nice affordable option for starting out and getting great footage
The Best !!! 😍
Thank you for sharing steve iam you're avid viewer. I learn a lot of your content making good camera movement and i applied in my video creation in my vlog. It create a big impact. Thank you Steve!
Looks perfect for an amateur beginner like me. In fact, I just ordered one
A DJI mini 4 pro is about AUD$1800 for a basic kit and HOVERAIR X1 is about AUD$399 for a basic kit too. Considering dollar value, functions and ease of use the HOVERAIR X1 blows DJI mini 4 out of the water.
I am seriously considering buying a HOVERAIR X1 soon.
Looks perfect for the creator who has avoided the hassles of standard drones!
amazing😁 a perfect option for recording holiday memories
Great cinematic shots. Learnt some good camera tricks. Thank you!
Thanks @yatriprasad, Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video as always! Getting mine soon as well. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!!!!
Loved the final sequence.
Pretty cool Brother... Thank You do much!! I will definitely get one of those.
🔥🔥🔥
Thanks! Did you try Hover X pro over water and for watersports with self following? Following with the beacon?
Brilliant video as always. i think ill be needing to pick this up for some oof b roll footage.
Great video that really highlights the features as well as some drawbacks. I've had my eye on this cute little drone for a while as I think it looks great. I think I'll wait for the update though - hopefully 4k and better with wind..
Thanks a lot Sir for this video This is what I was waiting for. Please make more videos like this with drones.
Fascinating. The kind of drone I would be likely be buy: simple to operate, small in size, protected props. I wish you would have demonstrated the storage and battery capacity limitations you had to accept, it would have made for a better review.
That was dope 🔥
❤❤❤❤❤beautiful..useful for me...a solo traveller
Steve, you've made my day. What a beautiful video!
Cool video !
I noticed the X1 makes a high pitched annoying noise, i hope they fix this with the ProMax.
Two questions:
1. Do crashes on trees affect the gimbal? It looks kind of exposed.
2. How fast can you charge one battery fully ,if you connect a PD powerbank to the hover charging hub ?
3. Does it detect well the hand gestures in low light or from a 5m distance ?
It looks cool; however, my $300 DJI SE does the same thing with four cages installed around the blades, and Litchi software offers all five of the same features, including 2.7k resolution. Plus, I can steer it out about 1/4 mile over the ocean and get it back with one button push if I lose it anywhere on the horizon.
Very Nice..Love it
W😮W!
Astig! Malupet!
(in Philippines)
Also nice review video!🫡
That could be very useful due to weight, great review Steve as always.
Might consider buying one.
That's really amazing! I wish to have one!
Wonderful video. I have been using my Hoverair x1 for several months now and I love it. I am a Moto vlogger and this drone is perfect for taking with me on my bike to get great footage.
How's the battery life
@@irubuview good. It lasts about ten minutes per battery. It is more than enough to shoot enough clips for my videos. I have two batteries and the charger.
This is very cool things i imagine how i film with this amazing things
Always glad to learn filming from you sir as i did filming using mobile
Awesome video!🥰🥰🥰
I've been looking at getting a drone. As i do a lot of hiking, this seems to be the ideal one for me.👍
I will let you know how i get on.👍👍👍👍
A very positve review indeed. I will stay postive by saying that downloading and editing is very easier as well unlike many other units. I use PC and the clips appear clearly listed and numbered. I still use (don't laugh) Windows Movie Maker and transfer is simple. I edit my running films to about 3 minutes trying to include all the modes and add free to use music. A great unit. But seems to be gradually going up in price. Bought the Combo at less than £400 but seen now much higher.
How long is the battery life? That's the only thing not covered. Thanks.
❤❤❤❤ love how much i can learn from your vdo :-) thank you thank you and thank you 😊😊🎉🎉🎉
WOWWW!!!!! Absolutely amazing, Steve! Muchas gracias.
This drone is for me !
love it, so many great ideas on how to use the camera.
The moment they produce a 4K 60fps version, I will definitely get this! 👍
The new one comes out at the end of the year 🤞
Very nicely done
They can keep the Neo I have a mini mavic to do longer shots
The x1 is perfect for me
